Not all shell Horween makes is alike. There are grades of shell. For example, Edward Green claims to use the highest grade of hand-selected shells coming out of Horween's factory. I always thought this is bullshit, but after comparing them to all other makers (the usual suspects - EB, C&J, Carmina), I believe they're right. No imperfections and absolute uniformity in the shell. Also, for some odd reason, they roll less and the rolls are therefore less prominent.
